Attachment: jdoLoadClass.patch
Patch for the reported bug.
> Use of JDK 1.6 with TCK: ClassLoader.loadClass cannot load arrays in JDK 1.6
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JDO-488
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JDO-488
> Project: JDO
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: tck2
> Affects Versions: JDO 2 final
> Environment: Use of JDK 1.6 when running TCK.
> Reporter: David Ezzio
> Attachments: jdoLoadClass.patch
>
>
> In JDK 1.5 and prior versions of Java 2, the name returned by Class.getName()
> could be used with ClassLoader.loadClass to load array types. This behavior
> was considered a bug that has been fixed in JDK 1.6. As a result, calls
> using encoded array names such as "L[java.lang.Object;" now fail with a
> ClassNotFoundException.
>
> See Sun's Java CR 6446627
> (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6446627) et alia.
> The recommended practice (and the only available option in JDK 1.6) is to use
> Class.forName(name, verify, classloader) to load a class with a specific
> class loader within the application.
